I was discharged from bankruptcy around 4 years ago. My boyfriend of 1 1/2 years told me that if we get married, his credit score will be cut in half due to my bankruptcy. Is this true? If no one knows the answer, does anyone know who I would ask to find out?

i did a google search, check out this site:
http://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/legal-effects-when-only-one-spouse-files-for-bankruptcy.html
since you were not married at the time of bankrupcy, he is not effected at all.

@michigancarol: Unless the defaulted loans were joint, it has nothing to do with him.
